Are you looking for a new job, or planning to make a change sometime soon? If so, these and other job search myths might be standing in your way:

"I will find my next job by applying online."

"My resume is the most important job search tool."

"I need to apply to as many companies as I can."

"A recruiter will help me find a job."

"No one will hire me because I am older."

"Networking doesn’t work for me."

"I can do this without help."
